Procurement

We help organizations build competitive advantage through the development of sustainable, world-class purchasing and supply management capabilities.

Sustainable impact is our focus and how we measure our success. Purchasing is often the most significant and easily instituted source of immediate and long-term value creation available to a corporation. We design strategic sourcing approaches to provide immediate impact but also believe that to ensure sustainability, a formal performance transformation program—that includes organizational and cultural changes—must be implemented.

Skill transfer, talent management, culture change, and capability building are equally important ingredients in executing a holistic and integrated transformation. Our clear, consistent, but tailored approaches are what makes us distinctive in building our clients into world class purchasing leaders.

Specifically, we also provide our clients a number of other services, support, and capabilities:

diagnostics

global sourcing

negotiation skills

organizational design

performance management and implementation

post-merger management

risk management

strategic sourcing of indirect and direct commodities

supplier selection, innovation, management, and development
